If you love classic blondies, you are going to adore this fall version. We take that buttery, chewy base you know so well and fold in fresh diced apples for a bit of texture and natural sweetness.

Adding a quick cinnamon maple glaze on top makes these feel extra fancy for parties or weekend gatherings. It is a simple recipe that tastes like a cozy afternoon in the kitchen.

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup peeled and diced apples
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon milk

9Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease an 8 inch square baking pan.
2
Whisk the melted butter and brown sugar together in a medium bowl until smooth.
3
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
4
Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt until the batter just comes together.
5
Gently fold in the diced apples, then spread the thick batter into your prepared pan.
6
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the edges are golden and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
7
Let the blondies cool completely in the pan.
8
Whisk the powdered sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, and milk in a small bowl until you have a smooth glaze.
9
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bars before slicing them into squares.

Store these in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For a warmer dessert, you can pop a single square in the microwave for ten seconds before serving.
